Higsins, Who has been at Seattle as one of the sub-committee of congress conduct- ing the investigation of charges against Judge Hanford, arrived home here early Wednesday evening and went to his summer home at Massa- peag on the Thames, where his famil is spending the summer. He had come from Chicago after a trip from the Pacific coast through the Cana- dian rockies, In eommenting upon national poil- tics Wednesday night, Congressman Higgins, who spent a week at the re publican national convention, said that the feeling at Chicago during the con- vention seemed to be that the best thing that could happen to the repub- lican party would be to have Mr. Roosevelt form a party of his own. hope the Bull Moose nominates him. The republican party has been too strong and too successtul. It 18 easy to find In many sections of the selves to It who never were very weil grounded in the faith. Now with their own party to look after, the re- publican party will be relieved of this Inoubus. Distinctly Rooseveltian Cry. The cry of “thief” “fraud” and “steam roller” as applied to the repub- lican convention is distinotly veltian and the Bull Moose is an ex- cellent symbol for the party. Anyons ‘who has read the testimony taken be- fore the committes on credentials at Chicago can come to but one conclu- slon, that the delegates seated by the convention were honestly elected, fair- ly entitled to their Beats, many of the alleged contests were pure fakes. T suppose later, continued Congress- man Higgins with the new party mak- ing its nominations it will be time enough to discuss the recall dire election of senators and tariff polic: as lald down in the keynote speech of Herbert Knox Smith. His views on the tariff will need to be amplified at least before they can either be com- | prehended or discussed. LL MOOSERS 60 Republican Party Well Satisfied to Have Them Go Says Con- gressman Higgins Upon His Return From The West— Tariff Views of Herbert Knox Smith Too Hazy For Com- country men who have attached them- | Roose- | and that | RIDDANCE Sanity Returning. “There are many indications of re- turning sanity in_the country. There will be a great change of public sen- timent before November. The more one considers the accomplishments of Mr. Taft's four years, the more one must be convinced of the righteousness of giving him another term,” com- cluded the congressman. No Politics in Hanford Hearing. In the conduct of thé Hanford in- vestigation at Beattle the committes spent five weeks on the testimony and had not completed the inquiry into the charges against Ji Hanford when the resignation of judge brought the investigation to a close. The re- port sent out by the Assoclated Press of serious differences of opinion in the committee were entirely erroneous and {gave & wrong impression, sald Mr. Higgins. There was no politics in the hearing. All were of one mind, | and although the committee was com- posed of republicans and democrats, | partisan feeling did not enter into the | hearing. There was great public in- terest while the Investigation was In progress and the commuittee put in long hours, sometimes as much as ten hours a day, It is probable now that the resignation of the judge will put & stop to pushing the investigation any further, Bumper Crop of Wheat. In coming home through the.Cana- dian rockies, the congressman stopped off at Banff and Lake Louise, two Dop- ular tourist peints, where the scen- ery is of surpassing beauty and gran- deur, said by those who have also seen the Alps to be superior to those | famous mountains of Europe. One of |the impressive sights in coming | through the northwest, both in Can- ada and in the United States, Is the | immense crop of wheat this vear, a record breaker for that country on | both sides of the line. |~ Congressman Higgins is to sall the | early part of next Tuesday for Bu- | rope, touring the continent till Sep- | tember, when he is to attend the peace | conference at Switzerland. ELIMINATE GAMBLING FROM STATE FAIRS. No Games of Chance This Year—Fair Directors at Hartford Vote Them Out. For the purpose of considering the question of gambling at state fairs, W. S. Hine of Derby, Wilson H. Lee ot Orange, W. I Alling of Berlin, J. B. Stetson of Brooklyn, Leonard H. Hea- ley of Woodstock and J. B. Palmer of Jewett City made up a committee ap- vointed in Hartford Tuesday by meeting of the directors of the differ- ent agricultural societies and the state board of agriculture. About 35 fair association directors were present. A drastic resolution positively prohibit- ing gambling in any form at state ag- ricultural fairs during the vear 1912 was prepared. The committee also went ont record as being in favor of a state soclety. The resolutions forming the same, together with that prohibit- ing gambling, will be presented to an- other meeting of the board and direc- tors for official adoption The meeting of Tuesday was called at the instance of the state board of agriculture, and followed the presenta- tion to that body by Gov. Simeon E Baldwin of the opinion of Attorney General John H. Light to the effect that any form of gambling at an agri- cultural fair prohibited the society conducting it recelving state aid. All present felt that all games of chance in which money prizes are put up or games in Which the taking of an article or money 18 optional should be elim- inated from the grounds of the agri- cultural fairs this year.

Blaborate preparations were made throughout Tuesday by his Norwich friends for the welcoming home of Rutherford C. Plaut, after his travels abroad, but when evgning came it was found that one important factor in the proposed celebration was lacking, the presence of “Fordie” The liner General Grant, on which Mr. Plaut came across, was late in reaching the Hamburg-American pler, and conse- quently he was unable to connect with the 5.28 out of New York, which it had been expected he would take and so0 orwich at nine o'clock in the cvening. The liner gid not dock untjl sl o'clock. It was Mr. Plaut's intention, how- ever, to remain in New York for the night, according to a telegram recei ed by Julius Cadden in this city at 3. Wednesday afternoon. Mr. Plaut nt this message ashore by wireless while offt New York but it is thought that it the steamer had reached the pier in time, Adelard Morin, who went down to meet him, could have con- vinced “Fordie” of the necessity of reaciting Norwich the same night Mr. Morin is to see that he reaches here on the 9 o'clock traln without suspicions_tonight, so that the pro- gramme of red fire, the band, the pa- rade and the speechmaking can be carried out. William F. Hill and Herbert M. Lerou are two of the leading spirits in making preparations for the dem- onstration at the homecoming of Nor- wich’s wandering son, but they have not found it difficult to arouse en- thuslastic co-operation among the hundreds in this city whom Fordie calls hig friends. A long list of au- tomobile owners had v nteered to be at hand in their cars and Mayor Murphy had arranged to be one of the members of the committee of recep- tion. The line of march arranged in- cluded the business streets of the city, ending at the Wauregan, where Mayor Murphy was down to express the sen- timents of the admiring friends of Mr. Plaut at his return. Following the cechmaking, in which Mr. Plaut was to have been given an opportunity to display his forensic powers, which are of no mean order, he was to have been the guest of honor at a private banquet given by the employes of the it C len company. All arrange- ments had been made for this Tues- day at the Wauregan, but it was post- poned until tonight when the news of his delay was received, The commit- tee in charge of the big surprise pro- poses to carry out the programme planned in all its details tonight. ATTORNEY FANNING RESIGNS AS TOWN COUNSEL Is Adso Corporation Counsel for City, and Two Interests Might Conflict. Attorney Joseph T. Fanning, who has held both the office of counsel to the town of Norwich and corporation counsel for the city of Norwich, has resigned as counsel for the town, having filled the position acceptably ( since he was appointed after the elec- tion of Selectmen Lillibridge and Wil- cox in 1909. Mr. Fanning ceases the | management of the town's legal mat- ters at this time because of possible future condlicts between the interests of the city and the interests of the town. He has recently been re-elected | counsel for the city. Attorney Fanning stated Wednesday afternoon that there was nothing im- | minent which he had in mind as fikelyl to cause such a conflict, but he had thought it advisable to take this step before such a contingency should arise, The resignation goes into effect Au- gust 1, First Selectman A.

On the occasion of his visit here sev- eral woeks ago General Manager Pun- Gerford sald he had gathered the im- ression that desire for the proposed ashington strest extension wes unanimous. At a meeting of the Board of Trade there was no remonstrance to the project. However, In view of the heavy remonstrance at this time, Mr. Punderford stated that he would fe- port to the company that his prewlous view was erroneous. Considering these objections and the fact that there is already adoquate service to the Falls, he said ho believed that the extension was not desired. General Manager Punderford, Super- Intendent Anderson, Mayor T. C. Mur- phy, Corporation Counsel Joseph T. Fanning, Chairman M. H. Hourigan of the public works commiitee and City Engineer George E. Pitcher met in the mayor's office shortly after 8 o'clock for a general discussion of the pro- posed trolley extensions. Regarding the Maplewood line, it was stated that with the extension of the service it would be diMcult to maintain a convenient schedule. Engi- neer Pitcher and Mr. Punderford pro- pose later to o over the line and con- sider the matter at further length. As there is an appropriation of $10.- 000 ¢or about ome-fifth of a mile of paving on Washington street, the clty officlals desired to know whether or not the Washington street xtension was to be made. The general mana- ger stated that he would not recom- mend & line there. He had come here, however, with the intention of present- ing a petition before the council next Monday evening to make the Wash- ington street extenslon. Owing to the fact that Boawell ave- nue has not been curbed, graded of kept in goon condition, Mr. Punderford stated that it would be quite a big proposition to lay & line through this avenue. Should the line be construct- ed from Franklin street, it will prob- ably extend only as far as Pratt street, near Seventh street. Mayor Murphy, Manager Pndertord, Chairman _ Hourigan and Engineer Pitcher took a trip up Boswell avenue by automobile and as a result General Manager Pnderford stated that he would have the avenue surveyed by the company’s engincers as soon as posaible and Indicated that it would bo his 1dea to have the line carried as far as Pratt street This is In the vicinity of the Greeneville entrance to Mohe- gan park and this approach is the nearest of any entrance to the lake, so that a trolley llne to this point would prove convenient as a means of access to the park. : BAN ON IMPROPER USE OF GENERAL DELIVERY. Copy of Department's Strict Orders Received at Local Postoffice. Postmaster William Caruthers has received & copy of an official order from the department concerning the improper use of general delivery by minors and by residencts served by carriers. As the order will interest ail users of the mails. it is here reprinted in full: “The attention of postmasters at offices having city carrier service is called to paragraph 3, section 713, Postal Laws and Regulations, com- pliance, with which should prevent the impropér use of the general delivery by residents. Postmasters at such offices may require all persons sup- posed to be residents to furnish in writing their names and addresses and statements of their reasons for preferring to be served at the general delivery. “Minors calling at such offices may Dbe requested to furnish the information indlcated above, and also the names of their parents, in order that their parents may be ‘notified and have an opportunity to control the delivery of the mall to the extent authorized by section 643, Postal Laws and Regula- tions. “Postmasters at offices not having city carrier service may notify the parents of minors in all instances where it appears that the minors a.e calling at the general delivery for mall under objectionable circum- ances. Sectlon 625, Postal La ulations, shouid be carefully in cases where fictitious used. “General delivery clerks should be instructed to use their best judgment and to submit to the postmaster any case concerning which they are in doubt.” The regulation has been subjected to rigld enforcement at the Hartford postoffice, greatly to the indignation of an occasional user of the mail who objects to what he may term the gov- ernment prying into privaté business. The postmaster is satisfied that the regulation has been the means of breaking up illicit correspondence in this city. In some cases schoolgirls have been partles to a correspondence which they dropped in fright wher thelr real names were demanded by the clerk in order that their parents might be consulted. and Reg- observed names are | LIGHT WORK FOR FIRE DEPARTMENT IN JULY.
